Ok. So I am trying to get GBAExloader to work with my Acekard 2.1. At first it was stuck at "Initialising..." but now it let me continue.

The problem is that when it starts now it shows "0 Games" and does not let me search through the directories.

I am using a M3 Real Expansion pack, if that matters.

On the bottom screen I see "Current SRAM save empty or new state" and all the otions for save but like I said the file broswing on the top screen won't work...

Can anybody help out?

EDIT: A quick note, the Expansion pack works perfectly. WOrks and saves on my M3 Zero. Still want to know how to get it working on Acekard, though...

That is the top and bottom screen when EXPloader boots up.

Also, I read up and apparently AKAIO boots GBA games? how? Supposedly I don't even need the EXPloader... but I can't get that function working with the M3 expansion pack either...

Also acekard2i and also m3 expansion pack here.
You could try moonshell 2 and this:

This is what I'm using and it works great!

Ok. I am trying it now. How exactly do I set it up? Do I just load the GBA roms through moonshell? When I load the EXpLoader it gives me some ext. something error.

Trying to load through Moonshell gives me "Initialising"...

does not start rom.

EDIT: Now it shows a screen with a green box that says "selected game"...

frozen. top screen is black.

Nothing is working. I have searched everywhere online and I have tried the Moonshell booting.

I would really like to get this functional...

YES!!! I got it working...

I had to change the EXPloader I was using. I had to use an OLDER VERSION (.53) which was the latest compatable version with the M3 expansion pack.


...At least, that is what I figured. all the M3 patched versions after that did not work.

    nope

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
